"I have worked in charity finance most of my life and currently do a mixture of working for a charity, lecturing in the subject and volunteering. I have seen the Sayer Vincent 'Made Simple Guides' start up and grown over the years and can wholehearted recommend them. For those starting in the sector or on the subject they are an invaluable introduction, for those long in the tooth, like me they are a useful check that you are up to date, and now that there are over 20 of them they cover most areas charities get involved with. Well done Sayer Vincent for providing a free resource of real value to those working in charities."
